Question:

Hi I have a 8900 pound empty weight camper. I’m looking and the Reece dual cam hitch but not sure if the 1200 pound bars are going to be too much for it

The Reese Dual Cam II Weight Distribution System # RP75FR is likely going to be the correct kit for your 8,900lb camper. This system is rated up to 1,200lbs of tongue weight while the next lower system is the 800LB # RP65FR which your camper is most like over since trailers typically carry 10-15% of the trailer weight on the tongue.
